DL 97 Flight Delayed: Compensation

If your flight DL 97 Paris to Detroit was delayed, you may be entitled to compensation for a flight delay, depending on the circumstances. Regulation EC 261/2004 is a European Union law that gives passengers the right to compensation for flight delay inconvenience and lost time.

The law does not provide compensation for minor delays less than 3 hours. So to be entitled to make a valid compensation claim, your flight DL 97 must arrive in Detroit at least 3 hours late. The distance between Paris and Detroit is the main determining factor for compensation calculation for your flight DL 97.

Tip: Detroit is not your final destination, the amount of compensation must be calculated based on the distance between Detroit and your ultimate final destination if both flights are booked under the same reservation.

Our technology allows you to check your eligibility for flight DL 97 compensation and determine the proper amount of compensation in real time due from Delta Air Lines. Make sure you don't miss out on your compensation claim, use our free flight checker.

Flight DL 97 Cancelled: Claim a Refund

Delta Air Lines is responsible to refund the price of flight ticket along with any additional out of pocket expenses incurred by the passenger as a result of flight DL 97 cancellation. If you had to rebook an alternative flight at your cost, Delta Air Lines shall repay any such costs and pay for food and temporary hotel stay.

Make sure you properly track your expenses and keep all your receipts and let our professional team handle your complaint with Delta Air Lines. Airlines take our complaints more seriously than those filed by air passengers who don’t have strong legal support.

Avoid accepting airline vouchers in lieu of a ticket refund, as vouchers typically have a lot of limitations and a short validity period without option of extension. Airlines try really hard to force passengers to accept vouchers, because Delta Air Lines knows that the majority of passengers will never redeem vouchers, which will expire unused.

Linda from United States (USA) (Delta Air Lines DL 97 Flight delay)
May 10, 2022, 4:37 pm

My spouse and I were on DL0097 on May 3, 2022. She is disabled (can walk with assistance and needs a wheelchair at airports). The extended delay was physically difficult for her, particularly in her back. We arrived at DTW and deplaned five hours after our scheduled 1300h arrival. The Delta representatives told us that the initial delay was for 1.5 hours, then that was extended. It was only after all passengers were on board, prior to taxiing, that everyone was informed (by the purser?) that no luggage was loaded on the plane because there had been a cargo latch issue. We were told that while a repair had been made that the EU regulations differed from the FAA regulations and that it was "paperwork" that had delayed the flight. We left CDG without luggage. We were informed, while on board, that the luggage would be sent to our final destinations either that evening or the following day, May 4, 2022. Our luggage arrived at our home in East Lansing, Mich. literally 48 hours later. We were anxious as I was scheduled to receive my PhD at a Michigan State University commencement the following day and some of the clothes I planned to wear were in the luggage. It was a clear inconvenience - not only the anxiety, but now receiving any information about scheduled luggage drop off. I tried multiple times to access the Delta delayed luggage website to no avail. Also, the customer service email was not answered for two days. I have documentation of both.
